1965 Map of Versailles

About this map

Versailles serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the distinctive karst topography of central Kentucky, including the notable Big Sink terrain. The landscape is defined by its transition from an agricultural past to a modernizing transport network, evidenced by the intersection of the Southern Railway and the Bluegrass Parkway. Local history and genealogy are well-preserved through numerous institutional landmarks such as the Orphanage, Taylor Manor Nursing Home, and the Childrens Health Camp near Pisgah.
